Photographer's Note

i like the scene, but it seems oversharpened. Is it IR? wonder how this would have worked if you'd gotten up a bit so you could eliminate some of the line of round shrubs in the foreground... there is a bit too much going on here for my tastes.

This is quite light, but the composition is very strong and balanced. If you converted to duotone in PS, I'm not sure how you did it, but you may want to do it with the channel mixer, where you can really milk out the contrasts and tones for all they're worth in B/W.
